Went and put on the summer tires from winters and discovered a few things......
-Rear wheel panel completely rusted through. Took only a slight tap for the metal to fall off and now I have holes on both sides of the car. At this point, I'm just going to hope I can find replacement body panels, anyone know of any?
-Front-passenger control arm failed. I replaced this 2.5 years ago with an alignment, does this sound too soon for a failure?
-Both rear disks completely corroded. Really had no clue they weren't being used since my winter rim does not allow me to see them. Looking at replacing both calipers I'm guessing?
-Went to jackup car on the usual rear pinch weld location I use and that was rusted alot, I felt if I kept going I would have crushed it inwards.
